‘No Kings’ protesters silent when Democrats rule as monarch

Aseries of “No Kings” protests are touted to take place again on Saturday, representing yet another wave of organized objection from left-wing activists using the government shutdown to fill streets across the country. The same people aren’t so quick — or capable — of explaining away why they sat silent while President Joe Biden engaged in activities that clearly exceeded his executive authority.

These protest gatherings, organized by groups like Indivisible and various labor unions, are working from a narrative of using patriotic rhetoric and symbolism to criticize President Donald Trump as a would-be monarch, ignoring how their history and demands for unchecked federal spending and censorship echo the very authoritarianism they decry. 

Executive Overreach on Student Loan Forgiveness

Joe Biden’s push for widespread student loan forgiveness by fiat through executive action was seen by many as a king-like act, bypassing Congress and ignoring Supreme Court precedents to unilaterally erase billions in debt. Critics argued the move treated the executive branch as an unchecked sovereign, with edicts that exacerbated economic burdens on everyday Americans without approval from Congress. 

Furthermore, Biden attempted to forgive student loans from multiple programs by bypassing Congress altogether. Biden attempted to forgive — on his signature alone — up to $20,000 in federal student loan debt for Pell Grant recipients and up to $10,000 for other borrowers earning less than $125,000 annually, using authority under the HEROES Act. 

The 2022 plan aimed to cancel roughly $400 billion in debt but was struck down by the United States Supreme Court in 2023 for exceeding executive authority. In what appeared to be further monarchical behavior in ignoring legal boundaries, Biden later pushed for alternative relief through the Saving on a Valuable Education (SAVE) plan, which faced similar legal challenges.

Unilateral Immigration Enforcement Policies, Energy policies

Biden’s early executive orders, like the 100-day deportation moratorium, were received by the same people complaining about Trump’s actions as regal decrees that, again, bypassed Congress’s role in establishing immigration policy. 

By selectively enforcing laws and expanding protections for illegal migrants, it appeared to be acting like a sovereign, granting sanctuary based on personal whim rather than statutory fidelity. This approach sparked border surges in the millions, the fallout of which the Trump administration is now dealing.

‘No Kings’ Isn’t Protecting Democracy, But Suppressing It

This weekend, a reported 2,500 “No Kings” events are scheduled to occur across all 50 states in what is expected to be a much larger follow up to the “No Kings” protests that occurred back in April and June of this year.

Organizers describe their movement as a necessary defense against President Donald Trump’s supposed assault on America’s democratic foundations, believing that Trump’s actions are akin to a tyrannical ruler’s rather than the legitimate actions of a democratically elected president.

Activists are expecting the largest single day of protest in modern American history, citing increased organic opposition to the Trump administration’s attempts at enforcing immigration law, the attempted deployment of National Guard troops to Democratic-led cities, and even the recent government shutdown, which are all being cast as examples of authoritarianism.

But a closer look at the “partners” page of the No Kings website contradicts the “grassroots” categorization of these “anti-authoritarian” protests.

Far from a spontaneous uprising of concerned citizens, the “No Kings” movement is powered by a familiar network of progressive organizations such as the Human Rights Campaign, MoveOn, Public Citizen, the American Federation of Teachers, the ACLU, Planned Parenthood, and Greenpeace, among others.

Behind them stand the same constellation of progressive megadonors that have driven the “resistance” since 2016. One major No Kings partner, Indivisible, for instance, has received more than $7.6 million from George Soros’s Open Society Foundations since 2018.

Defending the Democratic Party

Seen in this light, “No Kings” isn’t a defense of democracy at all. Instead, it’s a defense of the entrenched power of the Democratic Party.

As such, when progressives say they are “protecting democratic norms” they are in reality protecting their dominance within the unelected government bureaucracy, the mainstream media ecosystem, academia, and other institutions that operate beyond the reach of American voters, all of which Trump is seeking to either reform or dismantle.

This inversion of democratic meaning has been building for decades. From the administrative explosion of the New Deal under President Franklin D. Roosevelt, to the rise of the modern regulatory state, liberals, on both the left and right, have long viewed the unelected bureaucracy as a safeguard against the kind of populist backlash represented by the MAGA/America First movement.

Within that liberal worldview, elections are sacred only when they affirm the technocratic and managerial consensus. When they don’t, the institutions and those aligned with the ruling regime must step in to stifle any potential changes to the system.

This vision of politics as careful management has gradually reshaped our constitutional order.

Elections now merely swap figureheads atop a vast administrative machine rather than install leaders capable of altering the steady leftward course of American domestic and foreign policy.

This is why former President Joe Biden, who clearly suffered from severe cognitive decline during his term, did not impede the functioning or direction of government, demonstrating that the system, under Democratic leadership, largely functions without the direct involvement or even need for a chief executive.

This can be attributed to the fact that most federal employees politically align with the views of the Democratic Party, as evidenced by 84 percent of all political donations from federal employees going to Democrat presidential candidate Kamala Harris in 2024.

On the other hand, President Trump, who holds a popular mandate, must contend with a network of adversarial agencies, courts, and bureaucrats who continually attempt to stifle his agenda, all without being accountable to the electorate.

“Fueled By Billionaires”: No Kings Prepares Color-Revolution-Style Mobilization Against Trump

The Democratic Party’s dark-money NGO network, bankrolled by left-wing billionaires, is reportedly preparing to activate a coordinated, color-revolution-style mobilization across the U.S. this weekend – a replay of failed agitation attempts seen earlier this year targeting President Trump and Elon Musk. The operation, marketed under the “No Kings” banner and portrayed publicly as a grassroots movement, in reality functions as a professionalized protest-industrial complex. Its composition includes a blend of paid activists, white boomers suffering from Stage 4 Trump Derangement Syndrome, and a smaller contingent of organic, unhinged leftists who recite MSNBC talking points by heart. 

Little do these white boomers know, the “No Kings” movement, supposedly against “kings and billionaires”, is, in reality, funded by leftist billionaire kings themselves. In truth, No Kings is bankrolled by far-left foundations backed by the same billionaire class that has been waging a political war against President Trump since his first term. Essentially, one faction of billionaires hates another, so their woke non-profit soldiers create a front group, brand it “No Kings,” and bankroll an army of paid protesters and unhinged left-wing activists. This is America in 2025: the permanent protest-industrial complex of hate and chaos, financed by the left.

Extreme Leftist Democrat Crockett Claims Trump HAD A STROKE And Cannot Function

Unhinged low IQ individual Jasmine Crockett is spreading complete lies about President Trump’s health, claiming that he has suffered a stroke that has rendered him unable to carry out his duties in office.

Trump received a full medical last week at Walter Reed and passed with flying colours, and then went on to fly to Israel and bring peace to the Middle East, before returning to the U.S. the same night in order to posthumously present Charlie Kirk the Presidential medal of Freedom.

Despite this packed and hefty schedule, Crockett is all over social media claiming ‘medical professionals’ have told her Trump is mentally unfit.

Trump’s schedule would crush anyone with half her IQ—which isn’t saying much, since Crockett’s is probably room temperature on a good day. Back-to-back rallies, international diplomacy, and policy wins that make her entire irrelevant sideshow career look like a bad SNL skit.

How is this clown an elected official?

Keep talking Crockett, anyone with eyes can see that Trump is a workhorse and you’re absolutely full of shit.

Election Denier Kathy Griffin Doesn’t Think Trump Won in 2024, Calls Elon Musk a ‘Professional Nazi’ 

Kathy Griffin supposedly used to be a comedian. Now she is an election denying conspiracy theorist and smear merchant.

During a recent episode of her podcast, she said that she does not believe Trump won the 2024 election. She has said this before now. Remember when Democrats and the media said such talk was a threat to democracy? Good times.

During this segment, Griffin also claims Elon Musk is not actually smart, but that he is a ‘professional Nazi.’ Wouldn’t it be a shame if Musk sued her into the poorhouse?

NewsBusters reports:

‘Very Suspicious’: Kathy Griffin Goes Full Election Denier

On her Wednesday Talk Your Head Off YouTube show, actress and comedian Kathy Griffin continued the trend of liberal celebrities and talking heads trying to make election denial great again because, according to her, Elon Musk’s support for Donald Trump contained an illegal scheme to bribe voters.

Griffin started with her attacks on Musk, “I’m gonna say something that’s gonna get me in trouble. I don’t think he won in a free and fair election. You heard me. I’m coming out and saying it myself. I don’t care if that means I look crazy because Elon Musk, who’s this other Nazi guy running around town who owns X, and a lot of people think he’s a genius, but he’s not, he’s like a fake genius.”

As for the alleged funny business, Griffin continued, “Anyway, he’s a, but he’s a professional Nazi in my humble opinion, and he’s good friends with Trump, and at one point, I don’t know if you remember, but he was giving out million dollar checks to people if they would vote for Trump. That’s illegal. It’s unconstitutional and illegal, so that was happening, and the fact that Trump won all seven swing states, which has never happened in the history of the U.S., makes it all very suspicious to me.”

‘Two Bullets’ Jay Jones Says He’s Sorry For Vile Texts, Then Blames Trump

It’s a good thing “Two Bullets” Jay Jones isn’t applying for a line prosecutor position in an attorney general’s office. As Virginia Attorney General Jason Miyares has said, Jones wouldn’t pass a background check. 

But Jones, a former Virginia state delegate, isn’t applying for a line prosecutor position. He’s applying to replace Republican incumbent AG Miyares. The commonwealth’s voters in a couple of weeks, however, will determine if Jones’ vile text messages — in which he fantasized about putting “two bullets” in the head of a Republican politician he loathed — pass their background check. 

‘I Am Ashamed,’ but It’s Trump

At a debate Thursday evening between the two candidates, Jones had to again face the violent messages that some of his fellow Democrats have called indefensible and many Virginians have said are disqualifying. Jones gave another political mea culpa, telling the packed house at the University of Richmond who he believes the real culprit is: Donald Trump. 

“Let me be very clear: I am ashamed. I am embarrassed. And I am sorry,” the leftist AG candidate said. His apology sounded as sincere as the standard politician who is sorry — for being caught. 

Jones quickly pivoted to a long list of complaints about President Donald Trump, attempting to tie Miyares to the hip of the commander-in-chief and his policies. Jones, who is dealing with more unearthed skeletons than his 2022 text fantasies of murdering the children of former Virginia Speaker of the House Todd Gilbert, urged voters to remember that “the stakes of this race are too high” to consider his psychotic messages. 

Jones warned that if he is not elected there will be no one in the attorney general’s office to lead an endless lawfare campaign against the left’s Public Enemy No. 1 and his administration. 

“When Donald Trump fires [federal] workers, defunds our schools, and levies tariffs that destroy our regional economies, sends armed troops into cities, and defunds law enforcment, he has a willing cheerleader here in Jason Miyares, who will not step up to sue,” Miyares said, promising Virginia and the world that he would be a reliable foot soldier in the Democratic Party’s war on Trump and a political agenda that much of America voted for.

Shocker: ‘No Kings Protest’ in New York City on Saturday Is Sponsored by Several Communist Groups

Democrats and Communists, or Communist Democrats, are holding a “No Kings” rally Saturday in cities around the country.

The New York City No Kings rally is sponsored by several communist groups. The Democratic Socialists of America, New York Working Families Party, CPUSA, and Freedom Socialist Party are all sponsoring this rally against President Donald J. Trump.

Rather than working to end the Schumer government shutdown, Chuck Schumer is out promoting the communist-backed rally.

Senator Rick Scott (R-FL) called out Minority Leader Chuck Schumer for endorsing this disgusting anti-American event. Scott warned Schumer that if he attends this event he will endorse communism in America!

Senator Rick Scott: The “No Kings” protest in NYC this weekend is sponsored by multiple communist groups, including the Communist Party of the USA.

This is who @SenSchumer is cowering to & shutting down your federal government to appease. It’s disgusting & if Chuck Schumer attends this protest, it will be his full endorsement of communism in America.

Disgraced Democrat AG Candidate Jay Jones Deflects From His Own Violent Threats by Promising to “Prosecute President Trump Because He’s Bad and Orange”

During the first and only debate for Virginia attorney general, Democrat Party candidate Jay Jones was pressed on why voters should trust his judgment after disturbing revelations resurfaced from 2022, when he made politically violent comments about wanting to kill his GOP rival and his reckless driving conviction.

Marston pressed him twice on why Virginians should trust his judgment after revelations of his violent remarks.

Instead of showing genuine remorse, Jones attempted to pivot, deflecting from his own disturbing words and bizarrely claiming that his moral high ground comes from being “held accountable by his party,” which is false.

Jones then launched into a tirade accusing Attorney General Jason Miyares of being “too weak” to stand up to President Trump, signaling that his campaign is less about law and order and more about partisan vendettas.

While Miyares focused on crime, border security, and protecting Virginia families, Jones made it clear his priority is political persecution of Trump, not serving the people of Virginia. Jones could only talk about his Trump Derangement Syndrome.

K. Brett Marston:
Why should voters trust your judgment moving forward?

Jay Jones:
Well, look, Brett, I want to say one thing — Jason Miyares can’t prosecute a case against Donald Trump, that’s for sure. And I will also say this: I was held accountable by my party, and I deeply, deeply respect that. But what about when Donald Trump used incendiary language to incite a riot to try to overturn an election here in this country?

What about when Winsome Sears used violent language about people who disagree with you and her in your extreme position on abortion? What about when John Reid shared Nazi porn? You haven’t said a word. I’ve taken accountability for my mistakes. It’s time you — we — take accountability, too.

K. Brett Marston:
And let me ask this one more time, Delegate Jones, just so we’re clear and the voters understand — why do you think they should trust your judgment based upon these two events that we’ve discussed?

Jay Jones:
I’ve taken accountability for my mistakes, and I know that people in Virginia right now demand and deserve leaders who accept when they make mistakes, can acknowledge that, and have been held accountable.

This job right now demands someone who will hold Donald Trump accountable. For the last nine months, Jason has had 50 chances to sue the administration — to protect us, to protect our workers, to protect our health care, to protect our K-12 funding, and funding for law enforcement. And his office hasn’t done a thing because he’s too weak and too scared to stand up to the President.

15 Democratic Governors Announce Health Alliance to Counter RFK Jr.

The Democratic governors of 14 states and the territory of Guam on Oct. 15 announced a new coalition they said will provide scientific information to counter Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

The Governors Public Health Alliance is aiming to boost coordination between states on public health guidance, preparing for emergencies, and detecting health threats. It plans to issue recommendations to the public on vaccines and other health topics, as the governors say guidance from the federal government can no longer be trusted.  

“We can no longer rely on the information coming out of Washington, DC, but our states are coming together to unequivocally state that science still matters,” Washington state Gov. Bob Ferguson said in a statement.

“While Donald Trump and RFK Jr. turn their backs on public health, governors are stepping up to make sure our residents have the health care they need and deserve,” Massachusetts Gov. Maura Healey added.

The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) criticized the development.

“Democrat-led states that imposed unscientific school closures, toddler mask mandates, and vaccine passports during the COVID era are the ones who destroyed public trust in public health. Now, the same governors who eroded that trust are trying to reinvent public health under the guise of ‘coordination,’” Andrew Nixon, the communications director for the department, told The Epoch Times in an email.

“The Trump Administration and Secretary Kennedy are rebuilding that trust by grounding every policy in rigorous evidence and Gold Standard Science—not the failed politics of the pandemic.”

Among other HHS divisions, Kennedy oversees the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. His moves, including the removal of all members of the CDC’s vaccine advisory panel over conflicts of interest, have drawn criticism from Democrats.

The panel, now comprising experts selected by Kennedy, has advised the CDC to change recommendations for vaccines for COVID-19 and measles. The CDC recentlyaccepted the changes.

Some outside groups and coalitions have issued competing vaccination recommendations, including a western states alliance spearheaded by California. Multiple states have updated rules to let pharmacists prescribe vaccines not recommended by the CDC.

The governors’ coalition will build on those efforts by facilitating meetings with state officials, global health leaders, and other groups, according to GovAct, a nonprofit that describes itself as a nonpartisan initiative formed by governors. Other initiatives from the organization include the Reproductive Freedom Alliance, which is aimed at “protecting and expanding reproductive freedom,” including through expanded access to abortion.

All the governors that are part of the initiatives are Democrats, although GovAct’s advisory board features several former Republican governors, including former Montana Gov. Marc Racicot.

The governors in the public health alliance represent California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Hawaii, Illinois, Massachusetts, Maryland, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Oregon, Rhode Island, and Washington state. Guam’s governor is also part of the group.

The alliance’s advisers include Dr. Mandy Cohen, who served as director of the CDC under President Joe Biden; Dr. Anne Zink, Alaska’s top medical officer from 2018 to 2024; and Dr. Raj Panjabi, a White House official during the Biden administration.

Clinton Judge Blocks Trump Admin from Firing Federal Workers During Schumer Shutdown

A federal judge on Wednesday temporarily blocked the Trump Administration from firing federal workers during the government shutdown.

US District Judge Susan Illston, a Clinton appointee, issued a Temporary Restraining Order (TRO) on Wednesday and stopped the Trump Administration from firing federal workers.

The Schumer Shutdown began on October 1, and the Senate has voted 9 times – and failed 9 times – to reopen the government because Schumer wants to give illegal aliens healthcare.

Layoffs of federal employees officially began last Friday as the U.S. government shutdown entered another tense phase, according to Trump administration budget chief Russell Vought, who confirmed the sweeping reductions in a social media post.

“The RIFs have begun,” Vought announced on X, using the acronym for “Reductions in Force.”

Norm Eisen, the Deep State’s favorite lawyer who spearheaded the color revolution and more than 180 lawsuits against Trump, sued the Trump Administration to stop the RIFs.

Norm Eisen filed a lawsuit on behalf of federal labor unions and judge shopped to make sure his case was assigned to Judge Illston because she ruled in favor of labor unions in a RIF case in the past.
